About this audiobook
Was it murder, accident, or suicide?
Ex-cop John Jordan, now a prison chaplain in the Florida Panhandle, witnesses the bloody death of Potter Correctional Institution inmate Ike Johnson. But what exactly did he witness? Murder, accident, or suicide? Jordan discovers that in the closed society of captives and captors no act goes unseen, and no one takes kindly to a cop in a collar. He soon finds his reputation, his career, and even his life are at stake.

What our readers think
Readers find this title to have a good plot, although some parts were hard to follow. The characters are not typical and the lack of politics is encouraging. However, the book contains graphic and gruesome scenes, which is expected for murder mysteries. Overall, readers appreciate the unique characters and hope the author continues in the same direction.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5it was ok, some of the information the main character used in the end to solve the case where hidden in all the back story
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Some parts were hard to follow due to narrator who didn’t change inflection sometimes so you aren’t sure who’s “talking”. Good plot, but gory and gruesome which is expected for murder mysteries.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I liked that the characters weren’t the cookie cutter cast that so many authors fall back on. And the lack of politics for the most part was encouraging. Hopefully this author will keep it this way.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5When the main character wasn’t watching gay sex movies, getting beat up, or unconscious in the hospital, he was describing depressing prison conditions. This is the second book by the author I”ve read. I probably won’t be reading another.
